replace incorrect strscpy use in FORTIFY_SOURCE

Using strscpy was wrong because FORTIFY_SOURCE is passing the maximum possible size of the outermost object, but strscpy defines the count parameter as the exact buffer size, so this could copy past the end of the source. This would still be wrong with the planned usage of __builtin_object_size(p, 1) for intra-object overflow checks since it's the maximum possible size of the specified object with no guarantee of it being that large. Reuse of the fortified functions like this currently makes the runtime error reporting less precise but that can be improved later on. Noticed by Dave Jones and KASAN.
